Sarah Palin the role model?

anti palin Pictures, Images and Photos


Tonight in the debate Mccain called Sarah Palin a role model for women. Well speak for yourself John Mccain because she is no role model of mine. Merely picking Sarah Palin was a slap in women's faces. Not only was it merely political pandering but its an insult to our intelligence to suggest we would vote for someone who is so unqualified just because she is a women. John Mccain put politics before country by picking her. I do not know one person who with a straight face would suggest Sarah Palin is qualified to take on two wars and a financial crises. NONE. ZIP. Not only does she not have the experience to take on these issues but she does not have the intellect, which she proved on those two TV interviews. She is not a role model of mine when she allows herself to be used as a political prop which is to be seen but not heard. She is no role model of mine when she uses scapegoats such as the media using "gotcha" journalism to mix her up instead of being a strong women who takes responsibility for her own mistakes. She is no role model of mine when she thinks that someone should be forced to keep a pregnancy even if it resulted from incest and rape. Sarah Palin is no role model of mine when she supports abstinence only sexual education. She is certainly no role model of mine if she thinks that emergency contraception should be considered abortion. She is no role model of mine when she joins a ticket who does not support equal pay for women and says unequal pay is not the result of sexism but lack of education and training on the women's part. Just because she is a women does not make her a role model or a champion for women's rights. I am a feminist and am a big advocate for women and women's rights and John Mccain, do not patronize me with this absolute garbage of Sarah Palin being a "role model".
